Best Small Recording Studio Monitors

I use these headphones for quiet listening from my iPhone and laptop, and also as monitors for my small recording studio. As of this review, I've used them heavily for over a month. These are magnificent headphones with quality construction, and the soft over-ear cups are very comfortable even after an hour of use.

Man, I tell you these little studio monitors are so detailed for such a small speaker. You can definitely put in quick Studio Work with a laptop they are very quiet! The Bluetooth works great and they get pretty loud for NFSM'S!!!! Trust me you won't be disappointed! Just 299.99 is a no freakin brainer!!!!

Use these in the recording studio to hold some very large monitors. Because my monitors are big and heavy I added a 25b weight plate to the base of each stand and they are now rock solid. (Olympic style weight plates with a 2 center hole fit perfectly. My stands are rocking Golds Gym labeled plates and they look fantastic!) Getting your near field monitors off the mixing desk eliminates the need to use de-coupling pads. It also gives a lot more flexibility in setting the dimensions of your listening triangle. Theses stands are much higher quality than I expected at this price. Could not be more pleased and you will not regret this buy!

Me and my son Keith love these Yamaha Studio Monitors. I have a professional Recording Studio and these Studio Monitors are a great addition to my studio.

I have had these headphones for almost 10 years. In these 10 years, they have been THE BEST headphones I have used for mixing. I have used a bunch of headphones and studio monitors in that time, and nothing has beat them out, not even the infamous Sony 7506 (given, cheaper, but more prevalent headphones in studios) Things to note with these headphones; they are not super low end present. If you are getting these to listen to consumer music, you may not like them because they are not "boomy" or "full". These headphones are for users who are looking for definition and clarity for making a solid mix. The other note is a MINOR complaint; the part of the headset that rests on the top of your head/hair has worn out for me. The muffs also wore out, but I replaced them. If there is a way to replace the foam under the band, please let me know because I would love to have them looking brand new again. I broke the cable that came with the headphones by accidentally vacuuming it about 2 years in (stupid, I know), but the detachable cable saved me some money. Also nice if you want to swap out different size cables. I would highly recommend these to anyone looking to invest in headphones for studio mixing.

Fantastic for the studio monitors.

Headphones are used as monitors for vocalist singing and recording to a performance track. Using with a small headphone amp. Sound is clear and clean. Not too much bass, just good detail over the vocal range.

Best recording media next to cards!!

These were my choice after researching and listening to most small studio monitors. The sound on the BX5 D3 is just what i needed, renders true to my mix(the closest of the monitors i tried) the sound is balanced, the power is punchy when mixed at the right frequencies. As a sound engineer these have become my favorite monitors even for recreational music listening. Totally recommend and 110% recommend buying from B&H.
